A line partakes of the simplicity of a point more than does a surface; and a surface [partakes thereof more] than does a material object-as was evident.

A diverse ecosystem will also be resilient, because it contains many species with overlapping ecological functions that can partially replace one another. When a particular species is destroyed by a severe disturbance so that a link in the network is broken, a diverse community will be able to survive and reorganize itself...
